I also don't see pasta as "a proper meal".
Both are food .... but I'd not cross the road to eat them
Hahahahahaha! Pasta is my second staple!
Pasta. Stirfry. Yum yum yum. Both quick, easy, nourishing, tasty and minimal washing up!
Very often I'll chop up a veg, like a courgette, and bung that in with the pasta, then mix it all up in the sauce! Yum!(I just lurve spiders!)

Next you'll be telling me you put mushrooms in there too ....!
My taste buds are quite happy with the 1960s/1970s thank you very much. None of this new-fangled furren cr4p
Yep! Love mushrooms! And olives!
In fact, the only things I don't really like are beetroot and chocolate.
(Although I did once make an astounding chocolate and beetroot cake! Funny old life, ain't it!)
Fancy some escargots, Pastures?
:D:D (I just lurve spiders!)

I will start talking about something else next week, honest.
I'm not convinced that Russia is going to win. On the Eurovision forums, most of the people who like it are Russian and therefore can't vote for it. It's also not in the iTunes charts of many countries. Finland is a rare exception. In the Baltics, it's the Baltic entries that are charting. Even Sweden not doing that well in Scandinavia either.
The ones that are charting elsewhere are Australia, Netherlands, Belgium, France (in Israel it is higher placed than the Israeli song) and Austria.
On chart traffic and fan forum favourites, Australia looks in the lead.
Strangely the two songs that are all over Europe at the moment are Justin Timberlake... lucky he's the interval act, plus former Swedish winner Loreen.
And I'm posting here for fun. Please don't take anything I say too seriously or lose money on something I've said.

Don't worry, the fun I've had is well worth any amount that I may lose. Look at it that instead of throwing money on a country I like/ the one with the fittest looking singer/ most bizarre outfit I've looked in the viva crystal ball.I'm a Forum Ambassador on the housing, mortgages & student money saving boards.

Pop[ladydog naughty word] follows Eurovision closely and they have Russia down as a lay. Apparently it's not going down at all well with the audience. This is their competition guide with all the runners and riders:
